....how bad is this???? i have setup a new room but and i have a light leak.The plants are 4, Haze 19 x Skunk (sprouted a couple of hours before this post) and will be under 2 36w 6400k FluoroTubes 24/7 i know i need to solve this before flower cycle :D but i´m worried that that the light escaping out of the room will drastically slow the growth... i do need u guys input on this....tks a lot

Hi Omega..

You are concerned about a light leak.. correct?
Because you think that the light escaping...is light that is LOST.. and that, that light should be going to your plants...?


Your biggest concern about a light leak should probably be somebody spotting your grow...

You can always hang some reflective material..

and use it to stop light leaks and reflect light back onto your plants...

can you post a picture?
